Chapter 731: Half-step Dharma Cultivator

As Wu Lao spoke, he grasped upward into the void with his right hand, and a bolt of purple lightning formed in his palm. Immediately following, he let out a violent shout, and with a buzzing sound, an extremely powerful aura surged toward the surroundings.

Crash, crash... The floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa shattered completely, and even the chandelier on the ceiling of the main hall was affected by this aura, exploding with a boom.

Zhou Wanyun could not help but scream out loud; the room dimmed, becoming almost pitch black.

The bodyguards outside rushed in to provide emergency lighting, and the couple's expressions as they looked at Wu Lao had already changed.

A casual roar had such powerful force; if he were truly enraged and unleashed his full strength, how many people in this world would be his match?

"My junior brother's grudge must be avenged." Wu Lao's expression was grim, his eyes bloodshot; he was clearly enraged to the extreme.

In fact, for an expert at his level, he was only a half-step away from transcending ordinary people. He had long since ceased to show joy or anger in his expression, and there was even a faint tendency to discard the Seven Emotions and desires of the human world to focus on his own cultivation.

But his junior brother was his only attachment in the mortal world, and could be considered his only kin. Now that he heard his junior brother had indeed passed away prematurely, his heart was filled with incomparable grief.

"Wu Lao, if it weren't for that brat Chen Yu being too formidable, we would not have disturbed you or invited you out to avenge Wu Lao." Ye Jingwu felt secretly pleased at his attitude, but on the surface, he still maintained a look of grief.

"We regarded Wu Lao as our own elder and kin. With Wu Lao having passed away, we are truly very sad."

"Where is that brat? Tonight, I will twist off his head and place it before my junior brother's Spirit to pay my respects." Wu Lao stood up and shouted.

His voice was low, and the sound emitted under his fury rang out like muffled thunder, causing the couple's eardrums to buzz.

"Wu Lao, this is that brat's address. You can wait for him there, but this brat is very sinister, so Wu Lao must be careful." Ye Jingwu took out a piece of paper with Chen Yu's address written on it.

Wu Lao glanced at it, then nodded slightly. He turned around, his figure flashed, and he vanished from the room.

This old man was already a Half-step Dharma Cultivator, and his strength was no longer comparable to an expert in the Martial Ancestor Realm. With this one step, he vanished without a trace. The couple looked at each other, then revealed a hint of joy; with such an expert, twisting off Chen Yu's head would not be a difficult task.

The villa was in the suburbs. After leaving, Wu Lao headed toward the city. Wind rose beneath his feet; with every step, he covered several yards, and in a few bounds, he had traveled several kilometers.

However, in a patch of woods, a young man blocked his path ahead.

The young man was none other than Chen Yu. There was only one small path in this forest, and Chen Yu's appearance quickly caught Wu Lao's attention.

"Who are you? I am Wu Yutian." The old man raised his head slightly and glanced at Chen Yu.

"A Half-step Dharma Cultivator?" Chen Yu stared at the old man and nodded slightly, saying, "Ye Jingwu has finally found someone decent."

"Who exactly are you? I will only ask this one more time. If you do not answer, do not blame me for being ruthless." Wu Yutian stared at Chen Yu, raising his True Qi, his voice ringing in Chen Yu's ears like a great bell.

In his view, Chen Yu, who was hiding his aura, was merely an ordinary person. This brat was either crazy or did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.

"I am the person you are looking for. I have come to you voluntarily; you are old, so there is no need to trouble yourself to find me." Chen Yu smiled faintly.

"You are Chen Yu?" A flash of anger crossed Wu Yutian's expression.

"That's right, I am Chen Yu." Chen Yu nodded slightly.

"Truly young indeed. Brat, is my vision failing me that I cannot see your realm, or are you just an ordinary person?" Wu Yutian stared at Chen Yu and said, "If you were an ordinary person, you could not have harmed my junior brother. Did you use some kind of sorcery?"

"Heh, you are a Half-step Dharma Cultivator; you should know that if you cannot see someone's realm, there are only two possibilities."

Chen Yu smiled slightly and said, "First, this person is an ordinary person, so in your eyes, he is just an ordinary person."

"And the second?" Wu Yutian raised his head, thoughtful.

"Second, this person's realm far exceeds yours, and he has deliberately hidden his original realm, so you cannot see it at all." Chen Yu said with a chuckle.

"Far exceeds mine?" A look of mockery appeared on Wu Yutian's face: "Truly a callow youth, speaking without knowing the immensity of heaven and earth. Do you know what realm I am in?"

"Of course I do. You have studied and contemplated for decades, only to have just touched the threshold of a Dharma Cultivator." Chen Yu said with a faint smile.

"Heh, indeed. I am a Half-step Dharma Cultivator, only a half-step away from the legendary Dharma Path. For your realm to far exceed mine, you would have to have reached the realm of a Dharma Cultivator."

The old man sneered and said, "But you are too young, so I do not believe you are a Dharma Cultivator."

"In this world, nothing is impossible." Chen Yu shook his head and said, "If you truly do not believe me, there is nothing I can do. But your junior brother has followed Ye Jingwu all these years, aiding in his tyranny; my killing him was merely self-defense. If you are reasonable, go back and continue contemplating your Dharma Path."

"And if I do not go back?" Wu Yutian said coldly.

"If you do not go back, then I will have to send you on your way, allowing you to reunite with your junior brother in the Underworld." Chen Yu smiled, his latter sentence filled with killing intent.

"Heh, what an arrogant brat." Wu Yutian laughed in extreme anger. He took a step, his body suspended in mid-air, and his voice rang out in Chen Yu's ears like a thunderclap: "Since that is the case, I will let you witness what a Half-step Dharma Cultivator is."

True Qi billowed around the old man, whistling like a hurricane. Leaves gathered behind his back, the leaves laced with endless killing intent.

A Half-step Dharma Cultivator has already vaguely merged with heaven and earth; he can communicate with heaven and earth using his own power, borrowing the power of heaven and earth for his own use.

These leaves gathered behind him were no longer just leaves; they were sharp blades.

"Brat, I will give you one chance: commit suicide to atone for your crimes, otherwise you shall suffer the pain of ten thousand swords piercing your heart." Wu Yutian's voice rang out like a thunderbolt; he hovered in mid-air as if aided by a god.

"Honestly, there have been far too many people who have said this to me." Chen Yu said with some helplessness: "But they have all had only one outcome, and that is that the grass on their graves is already quite tall. Are you sure you won't reconsider what I said?"
